Patient Reviews
Jul 03, 2025
I made an appointment on the Gastrohealth portal and showed up at this doctor’s office. Took time off from work and walked in feeling sick, in the middle of a storm. There was no record of my appointment. I showed them my confirmation and they just smiled and said if they didn’t call me that’s not valid. So why allow the patient to make appointments that don’t exist? That they have no knowledge of? Why not put a huge sign that says you don’t really have an appointment…and if you are lucky, someone might see this and call you. All three ladies just mocked me for believing in their own system. I said that’s on you…I got my confirmation right here…but no empathy. Gastrohealth needs to remove the online appointment feature if it’s only a possible suggestion of maybe getting an appointment. You owe me a work day. Don’t trust that portal or providers that do nothing to improve or communicate better with it.
